Books Feast - 5 new books
I returned from Landmark, Chennai with an array of books to keep me occupied this month.
Here are the Books …
Buddha Volume 1 - Kapilavastu. This is the first of the 8 volumes written by Osamu Tezuka, the acclaimed Japanese writer and illustrator (also known as the father of the Manga or Anime). The Buddha series follows the life of Gautama Buddha, in Tezuka’s unique style.
Mapping the Mind - Rick Carter. This book draws on the latest in brain imaging to give extraordinary insights into how the brain works.
AdLand - Mark Tungate. The book takes a global view of the development of advertising, using first-hand accounts from the key players.
Lost in Translation - Charlie Croker. A wonderful collection of outrageous howlers from all over the world.
Himalaya - Michael Palin. A travelogue along the length of the Himalayas, including the Khyber Pass, the hidden valleys of the Hindu Kush, Peshawar, Lahore and the adventures that lie there-in.
